A New Begininning for the Safe Harbor Animal Shelter




Trying to protect and control over 400 animals can’t be the easiest thing to do on 14,000 square feet. Luckily for the Safe Harbor Animal Sanctuary they wont have to worry about space anymore.  After 25 years, the non-profit organization is closing their doors in Jupiter and relocating to Palm City to a much bigger property. Now the animals, volunteers, and workers can enjoy 28-acres in a beautiful location.
“On the property is a large home for the offices and perhaps later for the cat area of the shelter. The property also has a guest house that will be the home of a caretaker, a small barn where wild deer used to give birth to their young, a horse barn, acres of fenced property and three ponds.”tcoasttalk
Jupiter residents don’t worry though if you can’t make it over to the new location.  The Jupiter location will still be open and have an area for dogs and cats to be adopted.  Each week, there will be new breeds of dogs and cats that will be moved around from the Palm City location.  
With the non-kill adoptive center having a bigger location, Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control will have a smaller number of dogs and cats within their shelter.  Safe Harbor takes in animals from off the streets, animals from shelters with a no non-kill policy, and owners who drop them off at the back door. This is amazing for the employees at Safe Harbor and Palm Beach County pet lovers. 
This new location is located at: 4841 SW Zarella St, Palm City, Fl.
